If your looking for a Doctor who takes time with you, explains things thoroughly and cares about you and goes above and beyond then Schedule an appointment to see Dr. Lewis. Dr. Lewis took care of my mom for over 10 years with such great care. I’ll never forget the time he accepted my call on Thanksgiving Day while he was home basing his Turkey. He took time away from his own family to assist me with mine. He made sure he came to the hospital later that night to check on my Mom although he was not on call. Thank you Dr.Lewis!

Initially, after reading some reviews, I was apprehensive about seeing Dr. Lewis. Nonetheless, I recently was seen by Dr. Lewis and I was thoroughly impressed with his bedside manners. He's one of the best providers I've ever seen and he'll be my PCP until he retires. He was thoughtful, caring, and I appreciate the fact that he wanted to know about me.

He’s a great doctor, how ever he is never on time and his staff is very unprofessional. They don’t check their records to verify past payments and they treat people on Medicare or medicade like second class patients.

Dr. Lewis is never on time. Wait times exceed over an hour. Staff is extremely rude. I have had my appointment cancelled many time without advance warning. I would advise anyone to visit another physician. This place is absolutely terrible.

Receptionist was VERY rude and couldnt answer any questions. Dr. was GREAT, the nurse was fantastic, but the upfront service before you got called really turned me off to this office.
